Can anyone identify the computer being smashed here? [Image]

How do most dotTechies deal with computer problems? Heck, how do most normal humans deal with computer problems? My guess is first they try to diagnose the problem themselves and, if they cannot fix it or don’t know how to fix it, they ask for help from someone who does know how. However, Tim and Eric of ‘Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!’ are hardly what I would call normal people. So what do they do? They smash; check it out:

Anyone know what computer Eric is smashing in the above GIF?

P.S. I don’t really know if Tim and Eric had a problem with that computer or if they just wanted to smash it for the heck of it.

    I find it painful to watch, even though it might be outdated and useless.

    Maybe it’s actually a ‘hand held’ calculator from the 1960′s….?
